Something not working?
My microphone isn't working
On a phone
- Tap the lamp, then tap Allow when your browser asks.
- If you tapped Don't Allow on iPhone: open Settings, then Safari, then Microphone, and pick Ask or Allow.
- If you tapped Block on Android: in Chrome, tap the icon left of the web address, then Permissions, then Microphone, and pick Allow.
- Close any other app using the mic, like a call or a voice memo, then try again.
- Still nothing? Type instead. The typing box works in every session.
On a computer
- Click the lamp, then click Allow when your browser asks.
- If you clicked Block: click the icon left of the web address, set Microphone to Allow, then reload the page.
- Check that your computer's sound settings use the microphone you want.
- Still nothing? Type instead. The typing box works in every session.
My sign-in code didn't arrive
- Wait a minute or two. Codes come by email.
- Check your spam, junk and promotions folders.
- Check that your email address is spelled right, then ask for a new code.
- If you asked for more than one code, use the newest one.
- Too many tries from one network in 10 minutes pauses sign-in there. Wait a few minutes, then try again.
Why can't I start another session?
- Read the message on screen. It says which limit you hit.
- After a session ends, the next one opens 48 hours later. Your Tayo shows the day and time.
- Each person can start 2 sessions and use 90 coaching minutes in any 24 hours. Try again later today or tomorrow.
- Close to 90 minutes? Pick a shorter session: 15, 30 or 45 minutes.
- Deleting a session doesn't give it back for that day.
My recap isn't ready
- Wait 10 to 30 seconds after you tap End. The page refreshes on its own.
- Still not there? Open Home. Tayo tries again in the background. Give it a few minutes.
- Your dashboards (Where you've been, Where you are now, Where to next) can take a minute or two longer than the recap.
- If you didn't say anything in the session, there's no recap to make.
Reminder emails
- After your first session, Tayo sends a short reminder if it's been a week or more since your last session.
- To stop them, click Unsubscribe at the bottom of any reminder email.
Voice and Listen
On a phone
- Tap the lamp once, then just talk. Pause for a few seconds and your turn sends. Tap Pause hands-free to stop listening. Each recording can be up to 2 minutes.
- Can't hear your coach? Turn the volume up. On iPhone, the sound comes from the speaker.
- On iPhone, voice needs iOS 17 or newer. Update iOS, or type instead.
- To hear your recap, tap Listen. Each recap can be played 5 times a day.

Adding context (files and notes)
- Use a PDF, Word or text file, or a photo of a page (JPG, PNG or iPhone photos), up to 10 MB. Or paste the text.
- On a phone, Upload lets you take a photo or choose one from your library. After a photo, Tayo shows the text it read; delete it there if it's wrong.
- If a file won't upload, try a smaller one, or paste the text instead.
- You can add about 5 a day. If you hit the limit, try again tomorrow.
- To see, edit or delete what you shared, open Home, then What you've shared.
Deleting a session or my account
- One session: open it from Your sessions on Your Tayo, then tap Delete at the bottom.
- Everything: tap Your Tayo at the top right (your initial on a phone), then Delete account. Type delete, and confirm.
- It's gone from Tayo right away, and from our backups within 7 days. You don't need to ask us.
